Warframe: Complete Sicarus Incarnon build guide 

One of the top performers in Warframe's latest Incarnon batch (Rotation H), Sicarus Incarnon became a day-one sensation with incredibly high damage numbers. Turns out it was due to a multiplier calculation glitch, which got fixed the week after. However, even after the hotfixes, Sicarus is still among the strongest secondary Incarnons.

This Sicarus Incarnon build guide will discuss its mechanical quirks, best-in-slot mods, and Incarnon Talent options.

How does the Sicarus Incarnon transformation work in Warframe?

Incarnon forms generally tend to fundamentally modify weapon fire types, but Sicarus Incarnon does not do it. Pre-transformation, the vanilla weapon is a single-target burst-fire pistol, and this trigger type remains the same once you switch on the Incarnon.

So, what do you get in the Incarnon mode? A way to deal with crowds without sacrificing its single-target identity. Once you turn on this aspect, you get 120 ammo that fires in 3-round hitscan bursts. Each bullet can ricochet off enemies once (both body shots and headshots work). This can happen independently for each target struck using Punch-Through.

The Incarnon mode comes with a 30% Critical Chance, 3x base Crit Multiplier, and 20% Status chance, which means you can make use of both crits and status.

To be or not to be? (Image via Digital Extremes)

Sicarus Incarnon Genesis comes with the following Talents:

Incarnon Evolution stage	Challenge	Talent options
Evolution II	Complete a solo mission with this weapon equipped.	Feigned Retreat: Increase Base Damage by +35; +40% Damage to enemies below half Health
		King's Gambit: Increase Base Damage by +35; x0 Critical Chance on Bodyshots but +150% Critical Chance on Headshots
Evolution III	Kill 100 enemies with this weapon's Incarnon Form.	Void Guidance: +40% Accuracy; -40% Recoil
		Rapid Reinforcement: +50% Reload Speed
		Extended Volley: Extend base magazine capacity by 9
Evolution IV	Get 40 headshots with this weapon in Incarnon form in a single mission.	Commodore's Fortune: +14% Base Critical Chance
		Survivor's Edge: +9% Base Critical Chance, +9% Base Status Chance
		Wiseman's Regard: Increase Base Status Chance by 30% of Current Critical Chance, up to +40%

For this Incarnon Sicarus build guide, we're going Feigned Retreat > Rapid Reinforcement > Commodore's Fortune. However, if you're trying to build as a VIP-killer (especially Demolisher units), King's Gambit is a far better option.

5/6-Forma build for Sicarus Incarnon in Warframe

There's a lot of changes you can make to this build (Image via Overframe)

Due to much better base stats and about the same Riven Disposition, Sicarus Prime is the better fit for this Incarnon build. However, you can use the regular one with added Forma cost and slightly lowered performance.

As you may have guessed from the Incarnon Talent choices, crit is still king on Sicarus Incarnon. However, the status is also good enough to leverage Gun-CO, so there's an alternate build path for status we'll discuss later.

Mods used

• Galvanized Diffusion
• Galvanized Crosshairs
• Creeping Bullseye
• Primed Target Cracker
• Lethal Torrent
• Primed Convulsion
• Pistol Pestilence
• Primed Heated Charge

Arcane used

• Secondary Deadhead

Alternate Crowd-killing build

To go for a crowd-clearing build, simply swap out:

1. Lethal Torrent for Jolt
2. Primed Convulsion for Seeker

Alternate Disruption build with Gun-CO

If you want to focus on single-target DPS to kill Demolisher units in Warframe with this Incarnon Sicarus Prime build, make the following adjustments:

• Remove Creeping Bullseye and slot in Galvanized Shot there
• Replace Lethal Torrent with Jolt (for Corrosive) or Frostbite (for Viral)
• Replace Primed Convulsion with Creeping Bullseye

There are potentially two Arcane replacements you can go for:

• Use Secondary Outburst if you can pair it up with a high-combo Melee (Melee Crescendo or Relentless Combination with a high-slash fast weapon).
• Use Secondary Shiver if you can use a Primer or Sentinel to reliably proc Cold stacks (such as Okina Incarnon Genesis).
